Top Recommendations
Here are my top recommended web hosting companies:
ProNet Hosting
This is a recent addition to my top recommendations and has been added after I registered a domain and hosting with them. Fast, efficient service, fully loaded control panel, blisteringly fast server response, and very low prices, definitely a 5 star award.
The best package is the $7.95 a month deal, though prices do start at $4.95 a month, which gives you almost unlimited everything plus the option of adding more domains to the same hosting package, ideal if you have more than one website…
To get the $7.95 deal you do have to pay for two years up front but it really is amazing value for money.
====================================================
Bluehost
I don’t personally have any of my domains on Bluehost, but many of my friends do.
They all agree that the hosting supplied is of the very best quality with excellent reliability and service.
The feature list is long and contains everything that most people will ever need in a hosting package.
Highly Recommended
====================================================
My very personal recommendation for using any of the hosting companies listed here is for you to register your domain name separately from the hosting provider, and simply update the nameserver information to point to your new hosting (very simply done).
This allows you to EASILY change hosts if you ever find the service doesn’t meet your requirements, and also makes it easier if you ever sell the domain as you will have full control over the administration of your domain.
To register a domain name you will find prices starting from $7.99 either HERE or HERE
If you aren’t bothered about the same company registering your domain name AND hosting your website then simply order a domain when you order the hosting.

Anti-Virus Programs
OK I know this isn’t hosting but there are so many virus threats around at the moment that this is a priority, check that you are safe now, if not grab one of these deals before you get caught…
